Hummus is a delicious traditional recipe from the Middle East that has become popular worldwide. It is made from chickpeas, has a high plant protein content, is very healthy, and versatile for pairing with many dishes.
Place the chickpeas in a pressure cooker and cover with enough water so that it exceeds the chickpeas by about 10 cm, close the pot, and cook for 1.5 hours, until they are soft.
Once cooked, blend for 5 minutes using a food processor until it becomes a paste. Add tahini, yellow lemon juice, the garlic clove, and season with salt; if you need a bit more creaminess, add a couple of tablespoons of ice water.
Serve the hummus on a plate with olive oil and paprika, and accompany it with pita bread.
